Christianity is perhaps the biggest religion of the world
at present, Jesus Christ who fonnded the religion must not
have dreamt that some day his teachings shall be accepted by
a very large part of the world, It may be added that even
though Christianity has been accepted as religion by a big
'portion of humanity all over the world, strangely enough its
followers in most of the cases have consciously or unconsciou-
sly deviated from the cardinal principles of non-violence and
fraternal feelings for human beings which were so eloquently
preached by Jesus, But this departure from the main principles
is common to all the religions. Therefore it will be better for
us not to stop here to discuss the drawbacks of the followers
of Christianity and straightway try to proceed to acquaint
ourselves with the prominent features of the religion,
